Analysis
1. Selling Price equals to the present value of $32000 for a period of 8 years at 14%.
Present value = $32000 x PVIFA (8 years, 14%)
= 32000 x 4.6388
= 148443.65
= 148444
Now we will evaluate the investment value which is Selling Price + Present Value of Unguaranteed Residual Value
= 155454.83
= 155455
